Thicker than Paper

The Catalan Conference Center is one of Carlos Ferrater’s most recent works, created in collaboration with José M. Cartañá. This monograph on the building is an exhaustive analysis of the construction process, from the planning phase to its actual completion. The building is divided into three bodies separated from each other by two interior streets that provide natural light for the rooms. The main entrance has an ample vestibule and a hall with an amphitheater for 2,500 conference-members.
